CSUMB art class begins sketching new mural

CSU Monterey Bay Visual and Public Art professor Juan Luna-Avin and members of his mural class began Tuesday to map out the new vision mural that they will be painting at Inter-Garrison Road and Fifth Avenue. The original painting from the Army's time at Fort Ord contained lead paint, was peeling and was removed along with an additional work added by an artist at the university. Luna-Avin's mural class starts sketching later this week and he said he hopes to start painting the nearly 500-foot mural by the third week of September.
